I'll ask you to leave here tonight, you knew it was
Planned
When the world takes your heart from the fight
You do what you can
You're living here lost in the land
So brother don't force my hand
Please let's see the forest for the trees
Cos it's time to rise up; it's time to rise up from your
Knees

This ain't no life for us my brother
This ain't no life for us my brother
You're blind to all the colors, of the life you could
Discover

This house feels cold, abandoned and quiet
A son needs a warm hand to hold and home that's kind
A father who will stand in the light
I won't watch you die inside
For a love that was lost in the mire

But it's time rise up, it's time to rise up from your
Knees

This ain't no life for us my brother
This ain't no life for us my brother
You're blind to all the colors of the life you could
Discover

The depth you've found, is a trick of the mind
Is there hope for the man whose life has let him down
There's enough of those ghosts in this town
I've seen it drag good men down
Free up the shame in your pain
And let it rise up, let it rise up from the flame

This ain't no life for us my brother
This ain't no life for us my brother
You're blind to all the colors of the life you could
Discover...
